1-1-2 What is PWM?
It is a digital Pulse Width Modulation signal which is modulated by a reference sinewave.

(PWM) AC drives use a fixed diode rectifier to provide a fixed DC voltage to the inverter
bridge.
Then, in the inverter bridge, high speed power transistor control both voltage & frequency
to the motor

1-1-3 What IGBT can do ?
Omrons inverter employed state-of-art Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) which
provides precise waveform control that coupled with the high performance of IGBT provides
outstanding benefits that cannot be achieved with conventional inverters

High Speed Switching and Quiet Operation

Current Wave Example At 10Hz

Employing our original asynchronous high-carrier.... technique for sine wave PWM control,
we have succeeded in eliminating the motor noises that plagued conventional PWM inverters.
Running noise has been reduced by approximately 20dB as compared to conventional PWM
inverters. This quiet operation assures a more comfortable working environment.

Powerful Torque Ideal for a Variety of Applications

The 3G3MV is OMRONs first compact Inverter incorporating an open-loop vector control function,
which ensures a torque output that is 150% of the rated motor torque at an output frequency of 1 Hz.

Ensures a more powerful revolution at low frequencies than any conventional inverter. Furthermore,
the 3G3MV Inverter suppresses the revolution fluctuation caused by the load.

Incorporates a fully automatic torque boost function that drives the motor powerfully in V/f control.

Incorporations a high-speed current limit function, thus suppresses overcurrent caused by high torque
and ensuring smooth operation of the motor.

Convenient Easy-to-use Functions

zThe FREQUENCY adjuster of the Digital Operator allows easy operation. The default setting is for
operation according to the FREQUENCY adjuster setting.
zThe Digital Operator has a parameter copy function ensuring easy parameter control.
zEase of maintain is ensured. The cooling fan can be prolonged by turning ON the cooling fan only
when the Inverter is in operation.
zIncorporates a control transistor. Therefore, the Inverter will provide powerful control by just
connecting a braking resistor.
zIncorporates an inrush current preventive circuit that prevents contact weld at the input power supply
block.

UL/cUL UL508C

Compatible with CompoBus/D and RS-422/485

zSupports RS-422 and RS-458 communications conforming to the MODBUS Communications Protocol,
thus making it possible to easily construct networks with the use of the Protocol Marco or ASCII Unit
mounted on an OMRON SYSMAC PC. The MODBUS Communications Protocol is a trademark of
AEG Schneider Automation.
zConnects to the 3G3MV-PDRT1-SINV CompBUS/D Communications Unit. A remote I/O function for
CompoBus/D communications is available to the 3G3MV Inverter, which ensures ease of
communications just like standard I/O communications. Furthermore, CompoBus/D communications
conform to the DeviceNet communications protocol for open networks, thus allowing construction of
multi-vendor networks in which other companies devices can coexist.

Ambient Temperature Control

zTo enhance operation reliability, the Inverter should be installed in an environment free from extreme
temperature changes.
zIf the Inverter is installed in an enclosed environment such as a box, use a cooling fan or air
Conditioner to maintain the internal air temperature below 50 .
The life of the built-in electrolytic capacitors of the Inverter is prolonged by maintaining the internal air
temperature as low as possible
zThe surface temperature of the Inverter may rise approximately 30 higher than the ambient temperature.
Be sure to keep away equipment and wires from the Inverter as far as possible if the equipment and
wires are easily influenced by heat.

Protecting Inverter from Foreign Matter during Installation

zPlace a cover over the Inverter during installation to shield it from metal power produced by drilling.
Upon completion of installation, always remove the cover from the Inverter. Otherwise, ventilation will
be affected, causing the Inverter to overheat.

2-1-3 Removing and Mounting the Covers

To mount the Inverter, it is necessary to remove the front cover, terminal cover (unless the
Inverter is a 200-V model), and the Digital Operator. To wire the Inverter, it is necessary to

Wiring on the Input Side of the Main Circuit

zInstalling a Molded-case Circuit Breaker

Always connect the power input terminals (R/L1, S/L2, and T/L3) and power supply via a
molded case circuit breaker (MCCB) suitable to the Inverter.

zChoose an MCCB with a capacity of 1.5 to 2 times the Inverters rated current. For the MCCBs time
characteristics, be sure to consider the Inverters overload protection (one minute at 150% of the rated
output current).
zIf the MCCB is to be used in common among multiple Inverters, or other devices, set up a sequence
such that the power supply will be turned OFF by a fault output, as shown in the following
diagram.

Note Use a 400/200 V transformer for a 400-V model.

zInstalling a Ground Fault Interrupter

Inverter outputs use high-speed switching, so high-frequency leakage current is generated. In
general, a leakage current of approximately 100 mA will occur for each Inverter (when the
power cable is 1 m) and approximately 5 mA for each additional meter of power cable.
Therefore, at the power supply input area, use a special-purpose breaker for Inverters, which
detect only the leakage current in the frequency range that is hazardous to humans and
excludes high-frequency leakage current.

zFor the special-purpose breaker for Inverter, choose a ground fault interrupter with a sensitivity
amperage of at least 10 mA per Inverter.
zWhen using a general leakage breaker, choose a ground fault interrupter with a sensitivity amperage
of 200 mA or more per Inverter and with an operating time of 0.1 s or more.

zInstalling a Magnetic Contactor

If the power supply of the main circuit is to be shut off because of the sequence, a magnetic
contactor can be used instead of a molded-case circuit breaker.
When a magnetic contactor is installed on the primary side of the main circuit to stop a load
forcibly, however, the regenerative braking does not work and the load coasts to a stop.

zA load can be started and stopped by opening and closing the magnetic contactor on the primary side.
Frequently opening and closing the magnetic contactor, however, may cause the Inverter to break
down.
zWhen the Inverter is operated with the Digital Operator, automatic operation cannot be performed after
recovery from a power interruption.
zWhen using the Braking Resistor Unit, be sure to arrange a sequence in which the thermal relay of the
Unit turns the magnetic contactor OFF.

zConnecting Input Power Supply to the Terminal Block

Input power supply can be connected to any terminal on the terminal block because the phase
sequence of input power supply is irrelevant to the phase sequencce (R/L1, S/L2, and T/L3).

zInstalling an AC Reactor

If the Inverter is connected to a large-capacity power transformer (660 kW or more) or the
phase advance capacitor is switched, an excessive peak current may flow through the input
power circuit, causing the converter unit to break down.
To prevent this, install an optional AC reactor on the input side of the Inverter.
This also improves the power factor on the power supply side.

zInstalling a Surge Absorber

Always use a surge absorber or diode for the inductive loads near the Inverter, These inductive
loads include magnetic contactors, electromagnetic relays, solenoid valves, solenoid, and
magnetic brakes.

Design Section 2

27
zInstalling a Noise Filter on the Power Supply Side

Install a Noise Filter to eliminate noise transmitted between the power line and the Inverter.

Wiring on the output Side of the Main Circuit

zConnecting the Terminal Block to the Load

Connect output terminal U/T1, V/T2, and W/T3 to motor lead wires U, V, and W.
Check that the motor rotates forward command. Switch over any two of the output terminals to
each other and reconnect if the motor rotates in reverse with the forward command.

zNever Connect a Power Supply to Output Terminals

Never connect a power supply to output terminals U/T1, V/T2, and W/T3.
If voltage is applied to the output terminals, the internal circuit of the Inverter will be
damaged.

zNever Short or Ground Output Terminals

If the output terminals are touched with bare hands or the output wires come into contact with
the Inverter casing, an electric shock or grounding will occur. This is extremely hazardous.
Also, be careful not to shock the output wires.

zDo not Use a Phase Advancing Capacitor or Noise Filter

Never connect a phase advance capacitor or LC/RC Noise Filter to the output circuit.
Doing so will result in damage to the Inverter or cause other parts to burn.

zDo not Use an Electromagnetic Switch of Magnetic Contactor

Do not connect an electromagnet switch of magnetic contactor to the output circuit.
If a load is connected to the Inverter during running, an inrush current will actuate the
overcurrent protective circuit in the Inverter.

zInstalling a Thermal Relay

The Inverter has an electronic thermal protection function to protect the motor from
overheating. If, however, more than one motor is operated with one inverter or multi-polar
motor is used, always install a thermal relay (THR) between the Inverter and the motor and set
n037 to 2 (no thermal protection).
In this case, program the sequence so that the magnetic contactor on the input side of the main
circuit is turned OFF by the contact of the thermal relay.

Design Section 2

zInstalling a Noise Filter on the Output Side

Connect a Noise Filter to the output side of the Inverter to reduce radio noise and induction
noise.

Induction Noise: Electromagnetic induction generates noise on the signal line, causing the
controller to malfunction.

Radio Noise : Electromagnetic waves from the Inverter and cables cause the broadcasting
radio receive to make noise.

zCountermeasures against Induction Noise

As described previously, Noise Filter can be used to prevent induction noise from being
generated on the output side. Alternatively, cables can be routed through a grounded metal
pipe to prevent induction noise. Keeping the metal pipe at least 30 cm away from the signal
line considerably reduces induction noise.

zCountermeasures against Radio Interference

Radio noise is generated from the Inverter as well as the input and output lines. To reduce
radio noise, install Noise Filter on both input and output sides, and also install the Inverter in a
totally enclosed steel box.
The cable between the Inverter and the motor should be as short as possible.

Steel box

Power MCCB 3G3MV metal pipe

zCable Length between Inverter and Motor

If the cable between the Inverter and the motor is long, the high-frequency leakage current will
increase, causing the Inverter output current to increase as well. This may affect peripheral
devices.
To prevent this, adjust the carrier frequency (set in n080) as shown in the table below.
For details, refer to the parameter settings.

Cable length 50 m max. 100 m max. More than 100 m
Carrier frequency 10 kHz max. 5 kHz max. 2.5 kHz max.

Ground Wiring

zAlways use the ground terminal of the 200-V Inverter with a ground resistance of 100 or less.
Similarly, always use the ground terminal of the 400-V Inverter with a ground resistance of 10 or
less.
zDo not share the ground wire with other devices such as welding machines or power tools.
zAlways use a ground wire that complies with technical standards on electrical equipment and minimize
the length of the ground wire.
Leakage current flows through the Inverter. Therefore, if the distance between the ground electrode and
the ground terminal is too long, the potential on the ground terminal of the Inverter will become
unstable.
zWhen using more than one Inverter, be careful not to loop the ground wire.

Countermeasures against Harmonics

With the continuing development of electronics, the generation of harmonics from industrial
machines has been causing problems recently.
The Ministry of International Trade and Industry provided some guidelines in September 1994
for the suppression of harmonics from electrical household appliances and electrical
equipment in Japan. Since then, the problem has been drawing considerable attention.
Refer to the following information for the definition of harmonics (i.e., harmonic currents with
voltages) and countermeasures against the generation of harmonics from the Inverter.

zHarmonics

Definition

Harmonics consist of electric power produced from AC power and alternating at frequencies
that are integral multiples of the frequency of the AC power.
The following frequencies are harmonics of a 60- or 50-Hz commercial power supply.
Second harmonic: 120 (100) Hz
Third harmonic: 180 (150) Hz

Second harmonic (120 Hz)
Basic frequency (60)

Third harmonic (180 Hz)

Design Section 2

32
Problems Caused by Harmonics Generation

The waveform of the commercial power supply will be distorted if the commercial power
supply contains excessive harmonics. Machines with such a commercial power supply will
malfunction or generate excessive heat.

Basic frequency (60 Hz) Third harmonic (180 Hz)

Distorted current wave
form

zCauses of Harmonics Generation

zUsually, electric machines have built-in circuitry that converts commercial AC power supply into DC
Power.
Such AC power, however, contains harmonics due to the difference in current flow between DC and
AC.

Obtaining DC from AC Using Rectifiers and Capacitors

DC voltage is obtained by converting AC voltage into a pulsating one-side voltage with
rectifiers and smoothing the pulsating one-side voltage with capacitors. Such AC current,
however, contains harmonics.

Inverter
The Inverter as well as normal electric machines has an input current containing harmonics
because the Inverter converts AC into DC. The output current of the Inverter is comparatively
high. Therefore, the ratio of harmonics in the output current of the Inverter is higher than that
of any other electric machine.

zCountermeasures with Reactors against Harmonics Generation

DC/AC Reactor

The DC reactor and the AC reactor suppress harmonics and currents that change suddenly and
greatly.
The DC reactor suppresses harmonics better than the AC reactor. The DC reactor used with
the AC reactor suppresses harmonics more effectively.
The input power factor of the Inverter is improved by suppressing the harmonics of the input
current of the Inverter

Connection

Connect the DC reactor to the internal DC power supply of the Inverter after shutting OFF the
power supply to the Inverter and making sure that the change indicator of the Inverter turns
OFF.
Do not touch the internal circuitry of the Inverter in operation, otherwise an electric shock or
burn injury may occur.

Connecting the Braking Resistor and Braking Resistor Unit

When running a load with large inertia or a vertical axis, regeneration energy will return to the
Inverter. If OV (overvoltage) is generated during deceleration, this indicates that the
regeneration energy is exceeding the capacity of the Inverter. In this case, use a Braking
Resistor or a Braking Resistor Unit.

zConnect the Braking Resistor as shown in the following diagram.

Note 1. When using a Braking Resistor, install a thermal relay to monitor the temperature of the resistor.
Note 2. When using a Braking Resistor or a Braking Resistor Unit, be sure to include a sequence whereby
the power supply for the Inverter will be turned OFF in the case of abnormal overheating. Not
doing so may result in burning.

zBraking Resistor: Use the output of the thermal relay used to monitor the temperature of the
thermometer.
zBraking Resistor Unit: Use the error contact output of the Braking Resistor Unit.

zWhen using a Braking Resistor, be sure to set n902 (deceleration stall prevention selection) to 1
(without deceleration stall prevent).

3-2 Parameter Copy and Verify Function

The Digital Operation of the 3G3MV Inverter has an EEPROM in which the set values in all
the parameters and data on the capacity and software version of the Inverter can be stored. By
using the EEPROM, most parameter set values in the Inverter can be copied to another
Inverter.
Note In the above case, however, the Inverters must have the same power supply specification
and control mode (i.e., V/f or vector control mode). Some types of parameter set values cannot
be copied.

3-2-2 Parameter Copying Procedure

zTo copy parameter values to another Inverter, take the following steps.

1. Set n001 for parameter write-prohibit selection/parameter initialization to 4.
2. Set n177 for parameter read-prohibit selection to 1 so that the parameters can be read.
3. Read the parameter set value with the EEPROM of the Digital Operator with the item rED
selected.
4. Turn OFF the Inverter and remove the Digital Operation.
5. Mount the Digital Operator to the Inverter to which the parameters are to be copied.
Then turn ON the Inverter.
6. Copy the data in the EEPROM to the Inverter with the item CPy selected.
7. Check that the data is written correctly with the item vFy selected.

zThe above procedure is possible provided that the Inverters have the same power supply specification
and control mode (i.e., V/f or vector control). It is not possible to copy parameters from a 200-V model
to a 400-V model or from an Inverter that is in V/f control mode to another that is in vector control
mode, for example.

Note 1. The following parameter set values or output frequency on hold cannot be copied.

n176: Parameter copy function selection
n177: Parameter read-prohibit selection
n178: Error log
n179: Software version

Note 2. The following parameter set values cannot be copied if the Inverters are different to each other in
capacity.

n011 to n017: V/f setting
n036: Rated motor current
n080: Carrier frequency
n105: Torque compensation core loss

WARNING Turn ON the input power supply only after mounting the front cover, terminal covers,
bottom cover, Operator, and optional items. Not doing so may result in electric shock.

WARNING Do not remove the front cover, terminal covers, bottom cover, Operator, or optional
items while the power is being applied. Not doing so may result in electric shock.

WARNING Do not operate the Operator or switches with wet hands. Doing so may result in
electric shock.

WARNING Do not touch the inside of the Inverter. Doing so may result in electric shock.

WARNING Do not come close to the machine when using the error retry function because the
machine may abruptly start when stopped by an alarm. Do so may result in injury.

WARNING Do not come close to the machine immediately after resetting momentary power
interruption to avoid an unexpected restart (if operation is set to be continued in the
processing selection function after momentary power interruption is reset). Doing so
may result in injury.

WARNING Provide a separate emergency stop switch because the STOP Key on the Operator is
valid only when function settings are performed. Not doing so may result in injury.

WARNING Be sure confirm the RUN signal is turned OFF before turning ON the power supply,
resetting the alarm, or switching the LOCAL/REMOTE selector. Doing so while the
RUN signal is turned ON may result in injury.

CAUTION Be sure to confirm permissible ranges of motors and machines before operation
because the Inverter speed can be easily changed from low to high. Not doing so may
result in damage to the product.

CAUTION Provide a separate holding brake when necessary. Not doing so may result in injury.

CAUTION Do not perform a signal check during operation. Doing so may result in injury or
damage to the product.

5-1-2 Setting the Control Mode (n002)

zThe 3G3MV Inverter operates in vector or V/f control mode to be selected according to the application.
zThese two modes have the following characteristics.

Vector Control Mode

The Inverter in vector control mode calculates the vector of the operating condition of the
motor. Then the 150% rated output torque of the motor is provided at an output frequency of 1
Hz. Vector control provides more powerful motor control than V/f control and makes it
possible to suppress speed fluctuation regardless of changes in loads. Normally set the Inverter
to this mode.

V/f Control Mode

This mode, which is used by conventional general-purpose inverters, is convenient when
replacing a conventional model with the 3G3MV Inverter because the Inverter in this mode
can be operated without considering the constants of the motor. Furthermore, set the Inverter
to this mode if the Inverter is connected to more than one motor or special motors such as
high-speed motors.

5-2 Operation in Vector Control

The Inverter in vector control mode calculates the vector of the operating condition of the
motor. Then the 150% rated output torque of the motor is provided at an output frequency of 1
Hz. Vector control provides more powerful motor control than V/f control and makes it
possible to suppress speed fluctuation regardless of changes in loads.
To operate the Inverter in vector control mode, be sure to set the following parameters.
n036 (rated motor current), n106 (rated motor slip), n107 (motor wire-to-wire resistance),
n110 (motor no-load current)

Setting the Rated Motor Current (n036)

zCheck the motor nameplate and set this parameter to the rated current.
zThis parameter is used as a vector control constant. Be sure to set the parameter correctly. This set
value is also used for determining the electronic thermal characteristics to protect the motor from
overheating. The correct set value protects the motor from burning that may result from overloading.

5-3 Operation in V/f Control

This mode, which is used by conventional general-purpose inverters, is convenient when
replacing a conventional model with the 3G3MV Inverter because the Inverter in this mode
can be operated without considering the constants of the motor. Furthermore, set the Inverter
to this mode if the Inverter is connected to than two or more motors or special motors, such as
high-speed motors.
To operate the Inverter in V/f control mode, be sure to set n036 for the rated motor current and
n011 through n017 for the V/f pattern.

5-3-1 Setting the Rated Motor Current (n036)

zCheck the motor nameplate and set this parameter to the rated current.
zThis set value is used for determining the electronic thermal characteristics to protect the motor from
overheating. The correct set value protects the motor from burning that may result from overloading.

5-3-2 Setting the V/f Patterns (n011 to n017)

zSet the V/f pattern so that the motor output torque is adjusted to the required load torque.
zThe 3G3MV incorporates an automatic torque boost function. Therefore, a maximum of 150% torque
can be output at 3 Hz without changing the default settings. Check the system in trial operation and
leave the default settings as they are if no torque characteristic changes are required.

zThe vertical-axis load or the load with high viscous friction may require high torque at low speed. If the
torque is insufficient at low speed, increase the voltage in the low-speed range by 1 V, provided that no
overload (OL1 or OL2) is detected. If an overload is detected, decrease the set values or consider the
use of an Inverter model with a higher capacity.
zThe required torque of fan or pump control increases in proportion to the square of the speed. By setting
a quadratic V/f pattern to increase the voltage in the low-speed range, the power consumption of the
system will increase.

selectable by turning ON the multi-function input set with the inching frequency command. The
inching frequency command takes precedence over the multi-step speed reference (i.e., when the
inching frequency command is ON, all multi-step speed reference input will be ignored).


85
Setting the Frequency Reference with the FREF Indicator Lit

zThe frequency reference can be set while the FREF indicator of the Digital Operator is lit in the
following cases.
zParameter n004 for frequency reference selection is set to 1, which enables frequency reference 1,
and the Inverter is in remote mode.
zParameter n008 for frequency selection in local mode is set to 1, which enables key sequences on
the Digital Operator, and the Inverter is in local mode.
zFrequency references 2 through 16 are set with multi-step speed reference input.
zThe frequency reference can be changed, even during operation.
zWhen the frequency reference is changed while the FREF indicator is lit, the corresponding parameter
is changed simultaneously. For example, if frequency reference 2 has been selected with multi-function
input (a multi-step speed reference), the set value in n025 (foe frequency reference 2) will be changed
simultaneously when the frequency reference is changed while the FREF indicator is lit.
zTake the following default steps, for example, to changed the frequency reference with the FREF
indicator lit.

5-6-5 Setting Frequency Reference by Pulse Train Input

By setting n004 frequency reference selection to 5 for enabling the pulse train refer-ence
control terminal, frequency references can be executed by pulse train input through the PR
terminal.
The following description provides information on the n149 parameter (pulse train input
scale), which is used to execute frequency references by pulse train input.

Setting the Pulse Train Input Scale (n149)

zSet this parameter to the pulse train input scale so that frequency references can be executed by pulse
train input.
zSet the maximum pulse train frequency in 10-Hz increments based on 10 Hz as 1. A proportional
relationship is applied to frequencies less than the maximum frequency.

set the parameter to 100 from the following formula.
10,000 (Hz)/10 (Hz) = 1,000
Note 2. Input the pulse train into the frequency reference common (FC) and pulse train input (RP)
terminals under the following conditions.
High level: 3.5 to 13.2 V
Low level: 0.8 V max.
The response frequency is within a range from 0 to 33 kHz (30% to 70% ED)

5-7 Setting the Acceleration/Deceleration Time

The following description provides information on parameters related to acceleration and
deceleration time settings.
Trapezoidal and S-shape acceleration and deceleration are available. Using the S-shape
characteristic function for acceleration and deceleration can reduce shock to the machinery
when stopping or starting.

Acceleration/Deceleration Time Unit (n018)

zThe acceleration and deceleration time of the Inverter can be set within a range from 0.0 to 6,000 s
without changing the default setting. If a more precise unit of setting is required, this parameter can be
set for 0.01-s increments. In this case, the setting range will be from 0.00 to 600.0 s.

zThe acceleration time is the time required to go from 0% to 100% of the maximum frequency and the
deceleration time is the time required to go from 100% to 0% of the maximum frequency. The actual
acceleration or deceleration time is obtained from the following formula.
Acceleration/Deceleration time = (Acceleration/Deceleration time set value)
x (Frequency reference value) (Max. frequency)
Acceleration time 2 and deceleration time 2 are enabled by setting 11 for acceleration / deceleration
time selection in any of the n050 through n056 parameters for multi-function input.
Deceleration time 2 is also enabled by emergency-stop settings 19, 20, 21, and 22 in any of the
parameters for parameters n050 through n056 for multi-function input with n005 for interruption mode
selection set to 0 (i.e., deceleration stop).

This chapter provides information on the use of advanced functions of the Inverter for
operation.
Refer to this chapter to use the various advanced functions, such as precise vector control
setting, energy-saving control, PID control, carrier frequency setting, DC injection braking,
stall prevention, overtorque detection, torque compensation, and slip compensation.

6-1 Precise Vector Control Settings and Adjustments

6-1-1 Precise Vector Control Settings

zIn addition to the settings described in 5-2 Operation in Vector Control, check the motor test report and
precise motor constants and make the following settings in order to make full use of the Inverter in
vector control.

Setting the Motor Wire-to-wire Resistance (n107)

zSet this parameter to of the wire-to-wire resistance or phase-to-phase resistance of the motor at 50C.
zObtain from the manufacturer of each motor the test report of the motor or equivalent datasheet
including precise specifications of the motor. Use the applicable formula from those listed in the
following and calculate the wire-to-wire resistance at 50C from the insulation class and phase-to-phase
resistance of the motor described in the test report.
Insulation class E: Phase-to-phase resistance at 75C () x 0.92 x 1/2
Insulation class B: Phase-to-phase resistance at 75C () x 0.92 x 1/2
Insulation class E: Phase-to-phase resistance at 115C () x 0.87 x

Note 1. The value will be set in 0.001- increments if the resistance is less than 10 and 0.01-
increments if the resistance is 10 or over.
Note 2. The default setting for this parameter is the standard wire-to-wire resistance of the maximum
applicable motor.

Setting the Motor Leakage Inductance (n108)

zSet the motor leakage inductance in 1-mH increments.
zMotor leakage inductance is a magnetic field that is leaking externally or consumed as core loss, and is
not used for torque generation.
zTo insert an Ac reactor for surge suppression into the output side of the Inverter, set this parameter to
the motor leakage inductance added with the inductance of the AC reactor.
zThe Inverter fully functions in vector control with the default setting for motor leakage inductance.
Therefore, set this parameter only if the motor leakage inductance is known.

increments if the resistance is 100 mH or over.
Note 2. The default setting for this parameter is the standard leakage inductance of the maximum applicable
motor.

6-1-2 Adjusting Output Torque in Vector Control

zThe Inverter controls the output torque of the motor according to the required load torque in vector
control. Normally, no special adjustments are required. Adjust the output torque if the maximum tor-
que of the motor is unavailable or improvements are required in the output torque and response in a
low-speed range.

Adjusting the Torque Compensation Limit (n109)

zAdjust the set value in n109 (torque compensation limit) if the maximum torque of the motor is
insufficient or to limit the output torque to a certain degree while the motor is driven by the Inverter in
vector control.
zSet the torque compensation limit in percentage based on the rated output current of the Inverter as
100%.

Compensating Torque Insufficiency

zSet n109 to a larger value if the maximum torque of the motor is insufficient.
zSet the value in 5% increments while checking the operation of the Inverter and motor.
zCheck that no overload (OL1 or OL2) is detected. If an overload is detected, decrease the set values or

Adjusting the Torque and Response through the V/f Pattern
(n011 through n017)

zThe Inverter in vector control uses the V/f pattern as the reference value of the output voltage.
Therefore, by adjusting the V/f pattern the output torque and response are adjusted.
zIf the application requires high torque, adjust the V/f pattern so that the output voltage at the required
frequency will be high. Furthermore, energy-saving effects can be expected by decreasing the output
voltage values in the frequency ranges where high torque is not required.

6-2 Energy-saving Control

The energy-saving control function automatically saves unnecessary power that is uselessly
consumed while the load is light.
The Inverter in energy-saving control estimates the capacity of the load from the motor current
and controls the output voltage of the Inverter when the load is light so that only the power
required is provided to the motor.
The longer the operation of the Inverter in energy-saving control of a light load is, the more
energy is saved. If the load exceeds 70% of the rated motor torque, only some energy may be
saved.
This control is available to general-purpose Inverters and Inverter-dedicated motors but not
applicable to special motors such as spindle motors or underwater motors.
Energy-saving control is possible in V/f control mode only and does not operate in vector
control mode.
The following description provides details of the operation and adjustment of the Inverter in
energy-saving control.

6-2-1 Energy-saving Control Operation

zThe Inverter operates in energy-saving control as described below.

Acceleration

The Inverter accelerates normally and is not in energy-saving control.

Constant Speed

1. When the Inverter reaches the reference frequency, the Inverter operates in energy-saving control.
2. An ideal output voltage is calculated from the internal status of the Inverter and energy-saving control
coefficient K2 in n140.
3. The Inverter changes the output voltage to the calculated voltage.
4. The Inverter goes into probe operation to find the point where output power is at the minimum.
Probe operation: A control method to find the point where the power is at the minimum while changing
the voltage according to the probe operation control voltage step set in n145 and n146.

Deceleration

The Inverter decelerates normally and is not in energy-saving control.

Power
consumption
As shown in the graph, the voltage to
operate the motor most efficiently
varies with the motor load condition.
The Inverter in energy-saving control
adjusts the output voltage by using the
ideal calculated value so that the actual
output power will be minimum.

6-3 PID Control

Detected values of the Inverter in proportional, integral, and derivative (PID) control are fed
back so that the value will coincide with preset target values.
Proportional control, integral control, and derivative control in combination are available to
machinery systems involving redundancy time in control operation. The PID control function
of the 3G3MV Inverter is not suitable to the control of systems that require a response of 50
ms or quicker, however.
The following description provides the application and operation of PID control together with
required parameter settings and adjustments.

6-3-1 PID Control Applications

zThe following table provides application examples of the Inverter in PID control.

Application Control Sensor used
(example)
Speed control The speed data of the machinery system is fed back
so that the operating speed of the machinery system
will coincide with the target value.
The speed data of another machinery system is input
as a target value and the actual operating speed of the
machinery is fed back for synchronous control.
Tacho generator
Pressure control Data on pressure is fed back for constant pressure
control.
Pressure sensor
Flow rate control Data on the flow rate of liquid is fed back for precise
flow control.

6-3-2 PID Control Operation

zTo simply explain the operation of proportional control, integral control, and derivative control, the
following graph is used to show that the output frequency changes while the deviation (i.e., the
difference between the target value and feedback value) is constant.

Deviation

108
zProportional (P) Control: The output is in proportional to the deviation. The deviation cannot not be
set to 0 with proportional control only.
zIntegral (I) Control: The output is the integral value of deviation. This control method makes the
feedback value coincide with the target value effectively but cannot catch up with a rapid change in
deviation.
zDerivation (D) Control: The output is the derivative value of deviation. This control method quickly
responds to a rapid change in deviation.
zPID Control: By combining the merits of the above control functions, ideal control is possible.

6-3-3 Types of PID Control

zTwo types of PID control are available to the 3G3MV Inverter. Normally, feedback-value integral PID
control is used.
zFeedback-value Integral PID Control
In this control, the feedback integral value is used. The Inverter normally uses this control
method. The response will be comparatively slow if the target value changes because the
feedback integral value is used. The stable control of the target is, however, possible.

zBasic PID Control

This is the basic control method. The response will be quick if the target value changes
because the deviation integral value is used. If the target value changes rapidly, however, the
control value of the derivation control block will be large. As a result, overshooting or
undershooting may result.

zFurthermore, 3G3Mv Inverter can add the frequency reference to the operation result of the PID control
block.
If the target of control is motor speed, by adding the frequency reference, motor speed control with
high-speed response will be possible.
Do not add the frequency reference if the target of control is temperature or pressure.

6-3-7 PID Adjustments

PID Adjustments with Step Response Method

zThe following describes how to adjust each parameter of PID control by monitoring the step response
of the target of control.

1. Measurement of Step Response Waveform

Take the following steps to measure the step response waveform of the target of control.
a) Connect the load in the same way as the connection of the load to the Inverter in normal operation.
b) Set n128 to 0 so that the Inverter will not perform PID control.
c) Minimize the acceleration time and input the step frequency reference.
d) Measure the response waveform of the feedback.

Note Measure the response waveform so that the timing of the step input will be known.

2. Calculation of PID Parameters

zDraw a tangent line that comes into contact with the steepest inclination point of the response
waveform.
zMeasurement of R
Measure the gradient of the tangent line provided that the set point is 1.
zMeasurement of L
Measure the required time (seconds) between the origin and the point of intersection of the tangent line
and time axis.
zMeasurement of T
Measure the required time (seconds) between the point of intersection of the tangent line and time axis
and the point of intersection of the tangent line and set point line.


115

zPID Parameter

The following PID parameters are calculated from the R, L, and T of the intersection of the
tangent line and set point line as general rules.

Control Proportional (P) gain

Derivative (D) time
(n132)
P control 0.3/RL --- ---
PI control 0.35/RL 1.2T ---
PID control 0.6/RL T 0.5L

Note 1. Obtain PID parameter values from the above method, set the PID parameters, and tune in the PID
parameter values precisely.
Note 2. PID parameter values obtained from the above method may not be optimum if the friction factor of
the mechanical system is large or the rigidly of the mechanical system is low.

Manual PID Adjustments

zPerform the following procedure to adjust the PID parameter values of the Inverter performing PID
control by monitoring the response waveform.
1. Connect the load in the same way as the connection of the load to the Inverter in normal operation.
2. Set n128 so that the Inverter will perform PID control.
3. Increase the proportional (P) gain in n130 within a range causing no vibration.

zPrompt Stability

Set the integral (I) time to a smaller value and the derivative (D) time to a larger value for
prompt stability control, even though overshooting results.

zSuppression of Long-cycle Vibration

Vibration with a wavelength longer than integral (I) time results from excessive integral
control. The vibration can be suppressed by setting the integral (I) time to a larger value.

zSuppression of Short-cycle Vibration

Vibration with a wavelength almost as long as the differential time results from excessive
derivative (D) control. The vibration can be suppressed by setting the derivative (D) time to a
smaller value.
If the vibration cannot be suppressed after the differential time is set to 0.00, set the
proportional gain to a smaller value or the PID primary delay time constant to a large value.

Communications Chapter 7

136
The 3G3MV Inverter has standard RS-422/485 and optional CompoBus/D communications
functions. This section provides information on how to communicate over RS-422/485. For
CompoBus/D communications in detail, refer to the 3G3MV-PDRT1-SINV CompoBus/D
Communications Unit Users Manual (I529).
It is possible to control the Inverter, give frequency references, monitor the Inverter status, and
read and write parameters through communications. A maximum of 32 Inverter Units can be
connected and used as a simple network system.

Note The RS-422/485 communications of the 3G3MV Inverter conform to the MODBUS
Communications Protocol and this protocol cannot be used together with CompoBus/D
communications protocol or any other communications protocol. Only 3G3MV-Series
products can be connected as Slaves.
(The MODBUS Communications Protocol is a trademark of AEG Schneider Automation.)

7-1 Inverter Settings

7-1-1 Setting the Communications Conditions

Communications Time-over Detection Selection (n151)

zThis parameter is used for monitoring the communications system.
zThe set value in the parameter determines whether communications time-over detection will be
performed with CE displayed if there is an interval of more than 2 s between normal
communications. The method to process the detected communications time-over is also determined
according to the set value in the parameter.
zWhen a control signal (The RUN command, forward/reverse rotation command, or an external fault
signal) is input into the Inverter through communications, be sure to set n151 to 0, 1, or 2. Then the
system will stop in the case of a time-over detection. If there is a communications failure, no control
input will be operable. It will be, however, impossible to stop the Inverter if n151 is to 4 or3.
Use a host program that monitors how the Inverter handles all control input signals, for example, so that
there will be no interval of more than 2 s between communications.

7-2 Message Communication Basic Formats

The following description provides information on the format of message data (DSR and
response data).
Message communications of the Inverter conform to the MODBUS Communications Protocol,
which does not require message start and end processing.
(The MODBUS Communications Protocol is a trademark of AEG Schneider Automation.)

Communications Format

zThe following format is used for message data communications.
zMessage data consists of a Slave address, function code, communications data, and error check block.

Message Interval

zWhen the Inverter receives a DSR message from the Master, the Inverter waits for a period that is
equivalent to 24 bits in length and a Send Wait Time set in n156. Then the Inverter will return a
response.
zIf the Master issues the next message after the Master receives the response from the Inverter, the
Master must wait for a 24 bit period plus another period of at least 10 ms.

Message Data Configuration

Data name Description
Slave address Set the Slave address (the set value in n153) of the Inverter, to which
the DSR message is sent. The Slave address must be within a range
from 00 to 32 (00 to 20 Hex).
Function code A command giving instructions of the details of processing to the
Inverter.
Example: Data read (03 Hex) and data write (10 Hex)
Communications data Data attached to the command.
Example: The register number of read start data and the number of
registers of read data
Error check CRC-16 check code for checking the reliability of the message data.

Note In the above communications, the default is1 (65535) and the LSB (least-significant byte) is
converted as MSB (most-significant byte)(in the opposite direction). The CRC-16 check is
automatically performed by using the protocol macro function of OMRONs SYSMAC CS1-series or
C200HX/HG/HE Programmable Controllers.

Slave Address

zThe Master can communicate with a maximum of 32 Slaves over RS-422/485. A unique Slave address
is allocated to each Slave (Inverter) for communications.
zSlave addresses are within a range from 00 to 32 (00 through 20 Hex). If a DSR message is issued to
Slave address 00, the message will be a broadcast message.

Note The broadcast message is addressed to all Slaves. Only the RUN command (register 0001 Hex) and
frequency command (register 0002 Hex) can be written to the message. The Inverter receiving this
message does not return a response regardless of whether or not the message is received properly.
Therefore, for measure against communications errors, the monitor function of the Inverter should be
used for checking the reception of broadcast messages.

Function Code

zThe function code is a command giving instructions of the details of processing to the Inverter.
zThe following three function codes are available.

Function code Command name Description
03 Hex Data read Reads the data of the specified register number. Con-
secutive data of a maximum of 16 words (32 bytes) can
be read.
08 Hex Loop-back test The DSR message is returned as a response.
This command is used for checking the status of
communications.
10 Hex Data write The attached in the format is written to the specified
register number. Consecutive data of a maximum of 16
words (32 bytes) can be written.

Note 1. Do not use any code other than the above, otherwise the Inverter will detect a communications
error and return an error message.
Note 2. The Inverter uses the same function code for the response. If an error occurs, however, the MSB of
the function code will be set to 1. For example, if an error occurs in a DSR message with function
code 03, the function code of the response will be 83.

Communications Data

zCommunications data is attached to the command. It contents and its arrangement of communications
data vary with the function code. For details, refer to 7-3 DSR Message and Response.


143
7-3 DSR Message and Response

The following description provides information on how to set DSR messages and what details
are returned as responses. Each DSR message or response is divided into 8-bit blocks.
Therefore, data must be set in 8-bit blocks for communications

7-3-1 Data Read (Function Code: 03 Hex)

Settings and Response

zTo read data (such as control I/O status data, monitor item data, or parameter set value data) from the
Inverter, issue the following DSR message.
zData read is a maximum of 16 words in length (i.e., data of 32 bytes from 16 registers) per DSR
message.
zThe register number is allocated to each function item, such as control I/O, monitor item, and parameter
functions. The register number of each parameter is indicated wherever the parameter is explained in
this manual and in Section10 List of Parameters. For register numbers other than those of parameters,
refer to 7-6 Register Number Allocations in Details.

7-4 Enter Command

The Enter command is used for copying parameter set values that have been written through
communications in and after register 0101 Hex of the RAM area to the EEPROM of the
Inverter. This is done so that the EEPROM can maintain the parameter set values.
By issuing a DSR message to write data, the data is written to the RAM area of the Inverter.
This data will be lost when the Inverter is turned OFF. Issue the Enter command to store in
the EEPROM of the Inverter the parameter set value that has been written through
communications.
Note The Enter command is not accepted while the Inverter is running. Be sure to issue the Enter
command while the Inverter is not running.

DSR Message of Enter Command

zThe Enter command is issued in response to the DSR message (with a function code of 10 Hex) to write
data.
zBy writing data 0000 Hex to be sent to register 0900 Hex, the Inverter copies to the EEPROM all
parameter set values that the Inverter has received.

Note 1. Only the parameter constants (in and after register 0101 Hex) are stored in the EEPROM with the
Enter command.
The Run command (in register No. 0001 Hex) is in the RAM area. The frequency reference (in
register No. 0002 Hex) or any other data in registers with a number up to 003D Hex is also in the
RAM area. Therefore, the EEPROM does not store these parameters.
Note 2. Data can be written to the EEPROM a maximum of approximately 100,000 times. Therefore, be
sure to reduce the number of Enter commands sent as much as possible.

7-5 Setting the communications Data

The following description provides information on how to convert the register data (such as
monitor value or parameter set value data) in the communications data block of the message
data (such as DSR and response data).

Converting the Register Data

zThe data in each register is sent as 2-byte data.
zThe data in each register is processed under the following rules and sent in hexdecimal.

zThe data is converted to a hexadecimal value based on the minimum unit of
setting of each register as 1.

If the frequency reference is 60 Hz and the minimum unit of setting will be 0.01
Hz, the data will be converted as follows:
60 (Hz)/0.01 (Hz) = 6000 = 1770 Hex

Note 1. The minimum unit of setting of each parameter is indicated whenever the parameter is explained in
this manual and in Section 10 List of Parameters. For registers other than those of parameters, refer
to 7-6 Register Number Allocations in Details.
Note 2. The minimum unit of setting frequency reference data or frequency monitor data is determined by
n152 (register 0198 Hex: RS-422/485 communications frequency reference/ monitor unit
selection). The unit of setting of each of the three registers below is determined by the set value in
n152. For the units of setting of these constants, refer to the List of Parameters. The set value in
n152 has nothing to do with frequency data items set as parameter constants (e.g., frequency
references 1 through 16, inching frequency reference, maximum frequency, minimum output
frequency, jump frequency).

zMonitor Items
Register 0023: Frequency reference monitor
Register 0024: Output frequency monitor

zCommunications-dedicated Register
Register 0002: Frequency reference
In spite of the set value in n152, however, set the maximum frequency to 3000 when the frequency
reference is executed with a broadcast message. In this case, the Inverter rounds off any value less than
0.01 Hz.

Note 3. There are parameters that make setting unit changes when the values are increased with the Digital
Operator. The smaller units are, however, used for communications in such cases. For example, the
value in n083 (register 0153 Hex: jump frequency 1) will be set in 0.01-increments if the frequency
is less than 100 Hz and 0.1- Hz increments if the frequency is 100 Hz or over. The value 0.01 Hz is
always 1 Hex for communications.

If the jump frequency is 100.0 Hz, the minimum unit of setting will be 0.01 Hz
and the data will be converted as follows:
100.0 (%)/0.01 (%) = 10000 = 2710 Hex


151
zNegative Values Expressed in 2s Complements

If the frequency reference bias in n061 is 100%, the minimum unit of setting
will be 1% and the data will be converted as follows:
100 (%)/1 (%) = 100 = 0064 Hex
2s complement: FF9C Hex

Note Whether the data is positive or negative is determined by the parameter set value.
The MSB of negative-value data is always set to 1. Data with its MSB set to 1 is not, however,
always negative-value data.
For example, the setting range of the n083 parameter (register 0153 Hex: jump frequency 1) is within
a range from 0.00 to 400.00 Hz. If the jump frequency is 400.0 Hz, the data is obtained from the
following formula and its MSB will be 1.
400.0 (Hz)/0.001 (Hz) = 4000 = 9C40 Hex

zSetting All Unused Bits to 0

zBits 11 through 15 of the RUN command (register 0001 Hex) are unused. When writing the data, be
sure to set all of these bits to 0.

7-9 Communications with Programmable Controller

The Communications Board can be mounted to OMRONs SYSMAC CS1-series or
C200HX/HG/HE CPU Unit. The Inverter can then be controller by the Communications Board
through its RS-422/485 port.
The communications protocol can be set by using the protocol macro function. Therefore,
there is no need to write a ladder program for the communications protocol when the function
is used.
The following description provides information on how to control the Inverter through
communications with the SYSMAC CS1-series or C200HX/HG/HE Communications Board
by using the protocol macro function.
The RS-422/485 communications of the 3G3MV Inverter conform to the MODBUS
Communications Protocol and this protocol cannot be used together with CompoBus/D
communications or any other communications protocol. Only 3G3MV-series Units can be
connected as Slaves. (The MODBUS Communications Protocol is a trademark of AEG
Schneider Automation.)

7-9-3 Outline of Protocol Macro Function

Protocol Macro Function

zThe protocol macro function makes it possible to customize a communications protocol in order to
create a macro according to the specifications of the serial communications port of the general-purpose
peripheral device.
zThe protocol macro function is mainly used for the following jobs.
Create of message communications frame
Create of Send & Recv procedures for message communications frame

Note This manual uses the term message, DSR message, and response to express the communications
data exchanged.

zMessage: A DSR message or response.
zDSR Message: A message sent by the Master for instructions to the Inverter.
zResponse: A message that the Inverter returns in compliance with a DSR message from the
Master.

zCreating a Message

zThe message can be created according to the communications specifications of the general-purpose
peripheral device (Inverter) as a counterpart.
zA DSR message can include variables to set data in the I/O memory (such as data memory) of the CPU
Unit or write response data to the I/O memory.
zEach component of a message is in the memory of Communications Board. Therefore, the CPU Unit
can just execute the PMCR instruction to send or receive the data. Therefore, there is no need to write
ladder programs for the communications protocol.

zStep to Send and Receive Messages

zSending and receiving messages as a single step includes step-type commands, such as Send, Recv,
Send & Recv, and Wait commands.
zThe step can be finished or switched to another step according to the result of the step.

Configuration of Protocol Macro Function

zThe protocol consists of one or more sequences.
A sequence is an independent set of actions to perform together with a general-purpose peripheral
device, such as an Inverter. The RUN command and the frequency reference are given to the Inverter
and the status of the Inverter is read in a single sequence, for example.
zA sequence consists of one or more steps.

zSequence

zWhen repeating actions to give the RUN command and the frequency reference to the Inverter and read
the status of the Inverter, for example, the actions can be registered as one sequence, or more than one
if necessary. In 7-9-4 Creating a Project File, an example is shown with all actions registered as a single
sequence.
zA sequence may include the following parameters.

Parameter Description
Transmission
control parameter
Set the method of control, such as flow control.
Note Select only model control for communications with the 3G3MV.
Link word Set the area for sharing the data between the Programmable Controller and
Communications Board.
Note In 7-9-4 Creating a Project File, an example is shown without such as
area set.
Monitor time Set the periods to monitor the transmission and reception steps with timers
Tr, Tfr, and Tfs.
Note Set a period of approximately 0.5 s each for communications with the
3G3MV.

zStep

zIn a single step, a DSR message is sent and a response for the DSR message received. A step may not
include a response if it is a broadcast message.
zIn the case of repetitive actions to issue the RUN command and frequency reference to the Inverter and
the read the status of the Inverter, for example, the actions to give the RUN command and frequency
reference is one step. The reason is that these register numbers are consecutive and can be sent with a
single DSR message. The action to read the status of the Inverter is another step.
zA step includes a command and a maximum of two messages.
The above example uses the Send & Recv command. The DSR message and response are both
messages.
z A step may include the following parameters.

Command The Send, Send & Recv, Wait, Flush, Open (ER-ON), or Close
(ER-OFF), command is set.
Note In 7-9-4 Creating a Project File, an example is shown with
the Send & Recv command used.
The Send command is used for a broadcast message.
Send message A DSR message is set for the Send command used.
Recv message A response is set for the Recv command.
Send & Recv
message
A DSR message and response are set for the Send & Recv
command.
Message
Recv matrix If there are two or more response are set for the Send & Recv
command, the next process is selected per response.

7-9-4 Creating a Project File

zThe following description provides information on how to create a project file to issue the RUN
command and frequency reference and read the Inverter status.

Design

zSelect from I/O items, monitor items, and parameters the data to be exchanged according to the
application. Then consider what sequence is required by using the protocol macro function.
Example: Writes control input items (such as the RUN command and multi-function input) of the
Inverter and frequency reference, monitors the control output (such as error output and RUN
output) of the Inverter, and monitors the Inverter status. Three Inverters will Slave addresses from
01 to 03 are installed for communications.

zChecking the Register Numbers

zIn the above example, the following three registers are required.
Control Input: Register 0001 Hex for RUN command
Frequency Reference: Register 0002 Hex
Control Output: Register 002C Hex for Inverter status

zMemory Allocations

zThe PMCR instruction sends each Slave the data in consecutive words specified by the operand and
beginning with the first word (S), and writes in the memory area beginning with the first word (D) the
data received.
zThe following memory allocations are made in the above example.

The following timing chart shows the meaning of each monitor.
Be sure to set the periods according to the application.
The step will be retried if the step is not completed within the monitor periods. An error will
occur if the step is not completed within the monitor time again.
Note Set a period of approximately 0.5 s each for communications with 3G3MV.

Ts: Send wait time set per step. Nothing is sent during this period.
Tfs: Monitors the completion of the data sent. If the data transmission is not finished within
this period, the data will be re-transmitted.
Note If the Tr period is too long, the time required to detect a communications error will be longer,
during which the Inverter cannot be controlled. Therefore, be sure to set an appropriate period.

The number (N) of times to repeat the step is set within a range from 0 to 255.
It is possible to change messages by making use of the number (N).

Note In this example, the same message is sent to three Slaves with addresses different to each
other. Therefore, the number is set to 3 in word S + 1. The number of Slaves is specified by the
operand. Therefore, select Word, use the Edit command to set Data Address to Operand,
and set ON + 1 in order to select word S + 1.
In the above table, Reset means that the repeat counter must be reset first in the step.

Command

Set the commands, such as Send, Recv, and Send & Recv.

Note Only the Send & Recv command is used for communications with the 3G3MV except for
sending broadcast messages, in which case the Send & Recv command is used.

No. of Retries

Set the number of times to retry the command within a range from 0 to 9.

Note It is recommended that the number be set to 3 or larger. If a transmission error occurs due to
noise, the transmission of the command will be retried. If the number is set to 3, error will be
detected if the transmission fails three times.

Send Wait Time

The waiting time until the data is sent.

Note For communications with the 3G3MV, if data is repeatedly transmitted to the same Slave, set
the waiting time to 10 ms or more.
In this example, the DSR message is sent to Slaves 1, 2, and 3 one by one. Therefore, no send
wait time is set.

Send Message and Recv Message

Set the labels of the DSR message and response to be used.

Note Make these settings after deciding the labels in Send Message Detail Settings and Recv
Message Detail Settings.

Response Write

Determine whether or not to write the reception data in the response.

Note Always set this parameter to Yes for communications with 3G3MV.

Next Processing

Determine which step is to be processed next or finish the operation after the step finishes
normally.

Note In this example, step 00 is set to Next and step 01 is set to END because the sequence
completes by executing steps 00 and 01.

Error Processing

If the step has an error, determine which step is to be processed next or finish the operation.

Note In this example, the parameter will be set to Abort to interrupt the sequence if an error occurs.

8-1 Protective and Diagnostic Functions

8-1-1 Fault Detection (Fatal Error)

The Inverter will detect the following faults if the Inverter or motor burns or the internal
circuitry of the Inverter malfunctions. When the Inverter detects a fault, the fault code will be
displayed on the Digital Operator, the fault contact output will operate, and the Inverter output
will be shut off causing the motor to coast to a stop. The stopping method can be selected for
some faults, and the selected stopping method will be used with these faults. If a fault has
occurred, refer to the fault. Use one of the following methods to reset the fault after restarting
the Inverter.
Turn ON the fault reset signal. A multi-function input (n050 to n056) must be set to 5
(Fault Reset).
Press the STOP/ RESET Key on the Digital Operator.
Turn the main circuit power supply OFF and then ON again.

8-2 Troubleshooting

Due to parameter setting errors, faulty wiring, and so on, the Inverter and motor may not
operate as expected when the system is started up. If that should occur, use this section as a
reference and apply the appropriate measures.
Refer to 8-1 Protective and Diagnostic Functions, if the contents of the fault are displayed.

8-2-1 Parameters Fail Set

SThe display does not change when the Increment or Decrement Key is pressed.

Parameter write-prohibit is input.
This occurs when n001 for parameter write-prohibit selection/parameter initialization is set to 0. Set
n001 to an appropriate value according to the parameter to be set.
The inverter is operating.
There are some parameters that cannot be set during operation. Refer to the list of parameters. Turn
the Inverter OFF and then make the settings.

SOP is displayed.

A parameter setting error has occurred. Refer to 8-1-2 Warning Detection (Nonfatal Error)
and make the necessary corrections.

SNothing is displayed on the Digital Operator or OPR is displayed.

A connection error has occurred in the Digital Operator.
Turn OFF the Inverter and dismount the Digital Operator. After checking that the connector is
free of any foreign material remount the Digital Operator.

8-2-2 Motor Fails to Operate

SThe motor does not operate with input through the control circuit terminals even
though the frequency reference is correct.

The operation method setting is incorrect.

If parameter n003 for operation mode selection is not set to 1 to enable the control circuit
terminals, the RUN command cannot be executed through the control circuit terminals.
Check and correct the setting in n003.

Input in 2 wire sequence while 3-wire sequence is in effect and vice-versa.

The Inverter will operate in 3-wire sequence according to the RUN, stop, and forward/stop
commands if n052 for multi-function input 3 is set to 0. At that time, the Inverter will not operate
if input in 2-wire sequence will only rotate in the reverse direction if input in 3-wire sequence is
ON.
Check and correct the setting in n052 or change the input method of the RUN command.

The Inverter is not in RUN mode.

When the PRGM or LO/RE indicator (red indicator) of the Digital Operator is lit, the Inverter does
not start.
Cancel the RUN command, and by pressing the Mode Key, turn ON the green indicator before
restarting the Inverter.

189
The value of the frequency reference is too low.

The Inverter will have no output if the frequency reference is below the minimum output frequency
in n016.
Set the frequency reference to exceed the minimum output frequency.

The Inverter is in local mode.

The RUN command can be given to the Inverter in local mode only with the RUN Key of the
Digital Operator. Check the LO/RE indicator. If LO is displayed, the Inverter is in local mode.
Press the Increment Key so that rE will be displayed.
If the above operation is not possible, multi-function input will be set to local/remote selection. In
that case, the mode can be switched only through the corresponding multi-function input terminal.
Set the input terminal to OFF so that the Inverter will be in remote mode.

The input wiring of the control circuit terminals of the Inverter is incorrect.

The Inverter cannot check the input signal if the input line of the control circuit terminals is
incorrectly wired. Use the Digital Operator and check the setting in multi-function monitor U-96
for the input terminal status.
The default setting for Inverter input is to NPN sequence input, which can be changed to PNP
sequence input. Refer to 2-2-1 Terminal Block and check that the SW1 settings conform with the
actual wiring.

SThe motor does not turn with input through the control terminals. (The
frequency reference is set to zero or different from the set value.)

The setting of the frequency reference is incorrect.

The frequency reference through analog input will be ignored if the Digital Operator has been
selected for frequency reference settings. The frequency reference through digital input will be
ignored if the Digital Operator has not been selected.
Check that the set value in n004 for frequency reference selection coincides with the actual method
used.
When using analog input, refer to 2-2-1 Terminal Block and check that the SW2 settings conform
with the actual input (voltage or current).

Multi-function analog input has been selected.

If multi-function analog input CN2 on the Digital Operator is set to the external frequency
reference gain, for example, when the multi-function analog input is zero, the gain will be set to 0.
Consequently, the output frequency will be set to 0 Hz. Check that the set value in n077 for multi-
function analog input conforms with the actual input method, If this function is not used, set n077
to 0.

The Inverter is in local mode.

The frequency reference can be given to the Inverter in local mode only with the FREQUENCY
adjuster or through a key sequence on the Digital Operator.
Check the LO/RE indicator. If LO is displayed, the Inverter is in local mode. Press the
Increment Key so that rE will be displayed.
If the above operation is not possible, multi-function input will be set to local/remote selection. In
that case, the mode can be switched only through the corresponding multi-function input terminal.
Set the input terminal to OFF so that the Inverter will be in remote mode.

190
The gain and bias settings of the analog input are incorrect.

Check that the frequency reference gain in n060 and the frequency reference bias in n061 conform
with the actual analog input characteristics.

SThe motor stops during acceleration or when a load is connected.

The load may be too big.

The 3G3MV has a stall prevention function and automatic torque boost function, but the motor
responsiveness limit may be exceeded if acceleration is too rapid or if the load is too big.
Lengthen the acceleration time or reduce the load. Also consider increasing the motor capacity.

SThe motor only rotates in one direction.

Reverse rotation-prohibit is selected.

If n006 for reverse rotation-prohibit selection is set to 1 (reverse run prohibited), the Inverter will
not accept reverse-rotation commands.
To use both forward and reverse rotation, set n05 to 0.

8-2-3 Motor Rotates in the Wrong Direction

The output wiring of the motor is faulty.

When the U, V, and W terminals of the Inverter are properly connected to the U, V and W
terminals of the motor will operate in a forward direction when a forward rotation command is
executed. The forward direction depends on the manufacturer and the motor type. Therefore, be
sure to check the specifications.
Switching two wires among the U, V, and W will reverse the direction of rotation.

8-2-4 Motor Outputs NO Torque or Acceleration is Slow

The inverter in vector control is restricted by the torque compensation limit.

If the torque compensation limit in n109 is set to a value that is too small, the motor torque will be
limited to a low value and sufficient torque will not be available.
If no torque restriction is required, set the parameter to a range from 150% (default setting) to 200%.

The stall prevention level during running is too low.

If the value in n093 for stall prevention level during operation is too low; the speed will drop
before torque output is turned ON.
Check to be sure that the set value is suitable.

The stall prevention level during acceleration is too low.

If the value in n094 for stall prevention level during acceleration is too slow; the acceleration time
will be too long.
Check to be sure that the set value is suitable.

V/f Control Limit

Unlike vector control, the output torque of the Inverter in V/f control is low at low frequencies.
Consider the use of vector control if higher output torque at low frequencies is required.

191
8-2-5 Speed Accuracy of the Inverter Rotating at High Speed in Vector Control is Low

The rated motor voltage is high.

The maximum output voltage of the Inverter is determined by the voltage of input into the Inverter,
If the input is at 200 VAC, for example, the maximum output voltage will be 200VAC. The speed
precision of the Inverter will drop if the output voltage designated by vector control has exceeded
the maximum output voltage of the Inverter.
Use a motor with a lower rated voltage (e.g., a dedicated motor for vector control use).

8-2-6 Motor Deceleration Rate is Low

Stall prevention during deceleration is set.

When connecting the Braking Resistor Unit or a braking resistor as a braking option, set n092 for
Stall prevention during deceleration to 1 so that stall prevention will be disabled. If n092 is set to 0
(default setting), the Braking Resistor Unit or a braking resistor connected will not be used.
Therefore, there will be no reduction in the deceleration time.

The deceleration time setting is too long.

Check the deceleration time settings in n020 and n022.

Motor torque is insufficient.

If the parameter constants are correct and there is no overvoltage fault, the power the motor will be
limited.
Consider increasing the motor capacity.

The Inverter in vector control is restricted by the torque compensation limit.

If the torque compensation limit in n 109 is set to a value that is too small, the motor torque will be
limited to a low value and sufficient torque will not be available.
If no torque restriction is required, set the parameter to a range from 150% (default setting) to
200%.

8-2-7 Vertical-axis Load Drops when Brakes are Applied


The Inverter goes into DC braking status for 0.5 s after deceleration is completed. This is the
default setting.
Check the sequence to make sure that the brake is applied with DC braking status or adjust the
value n090 for DC injection control time.

The DC injection braking is insufficient.

If the DC braking power is insufficient, adjust the value in n089 for DC injection control current.

An inappropriate brake is being used.

Use a brake intended for braking rather than holding.

192
8-2-8 Motor Burns

The load is too big.

If the load of the motor is too big and the motor is used with the effective torque exceeding the
rated torque of the motor, the motor will burn out. For example, the rated torque of the motor and
capacity may be limited to eight hours of use if the inscription on the motor states that the motor is
rated for eight hours. If the 8-hour rated torque is used for normal operation, it may cause the
motor to burn out.
Reduce the load amount by either reducing the load or lengthening the acceleration/deceleration
time. Also consider increasing the motor capacity.


The rating of the motor is determined within a particular ambient operating temperature range. The
motor will burn out if it runs continuously at the rated torque in an environment in which the
maximum ambient operating temperature is exceeded.
Lower the ambient temperature of the motor to within the acceptable ambient operating
temperature range.

The withstand voltage between the phases of the motor is insufficient.

When the motor is connected to the output of the Inverter, a surge will be generated between the
switching of the Inverter and the coil of the motor.
Normally, the maximum surge voltage is approximately three times the input power supply voltage
of the Inverter (i.e., approximately 600V for 200-V Inverters, 1,200V for 400-V Inverters).
Therefore, the dielectric strength of the motor to be used must be higher than the maximum surge
voltage.
In particular, use a dedicated motor for 400-V Inverters.

8-2-9 Controller or AM Radio Receives Noise when Inverter is Started

Noise derives from Inverter switching.

Take the following actions to prevent noise.

Lower the carrier frequency of the Inverter in n080.

The number of internal switching times is reduced, so noise can be reduced to some extent.

Install an Input Noise Filter.

Install an Input Noise Filter on the power-input area of the Inverter.

Install an Output noise Filter.

Install an Output Noise Filter on the output area of the Inverter.

Use metal tubing.

Electric waves can be shielded by metal. Therefore, enclose the Inverter with a metal tube.

193
8-2-10 Ground Fault Interrupter is Actuated when Inverter is Started

Leakage current flows through the Inverter.

The Inverter performs internal switching. Therefore, a leakage current flows through the Inverter.
This leakage current may actuate the ground fault interrupter, shutting the power OFF.
Use a ground fault interrupter with a high leakage-current detection value (sensitivity amperage of
200mA or more, operating time of 0.1 s or more) or one with high-frequency countermeasures for
Inverter use.
Reducing the carrier frequency value in n080 is also effective.
In addition, remember that a leakage current increases in proportion to the cable length. Normally,
approximately 5mA of leakage current is generated for each meter of cable.

8-2-11 Mechanical Vibration

SMechanical system makes unusual noise.

Resonance between the characteristic frequency of the mechanical system and the carrier frequency.

There may be resonance between the characteristic frequency of the mechanical system and the
carrier frequency/ If the motor is running with no problems and the machinery system is vibrating
with a high-pitched whine, it may indicate that this is occurring. To prevent this type of resonance,
adjust the carrier frequency value in n080.

Resonance between the characteristic frequency of a machine and the output frequency of the Inverter.

There may be resonance between the characteristic frequency of a machine and the output
frequency of the Inverter. To prevent this from occurring, use the frequency jump function with
the constants set in n083 through n086 to change the output frequency or install vibration-proof
rubber on the motor base to prevent the resonance of the mechanical system.

SVibration and hunting are occurring.

Influence by the torque compensation function or the slip compensation function.

The torque compensation function or the slip compensation function of the Inverter may influence
the characteristic frequency of the mechanical system, causing vibration or hunting. In that case,
increase the time constants in n104 for torque compensation and in n112 for slip compensation,
The larger these time constants are, however, the slower the response speed of the torque
compensation function and slip compensation function will be.

8-2-12 Stable PID Control is Not Possible or Control Fails

SPID control is not possible with vibration or hunting.

PID control gain adjustment is insufficient.

Check the frequency of vibration and adjust the proportional (P) control, integral (I) control, and
derivative (D) control of the Inverter. Refer to 6-3-7 PID Adjustments.

SPID control diverges.

No feedback is input.

If the detected value is 0 with no feedback input, the PID control function will not operate. As a
result, the output if the Inverter will diverge and the motor will increase its speed up to the
maximum frequency.

194
Check that the set value in n164 for PID feedback input block selection conforms with the actual
input and that the PID constants are set properly. Refer to 6-3-6 PID Control Settings.

Level adjustments of the target and detected values are imperfect.

The Inverter in PID control adjusts the deviation between the target and detected values so that the
deviation will be zero. Therefor, the target and detected values must be adjusted so that they will
have the same input level. Set the detected value gain in n129 after making the proper level
adjustments.

The relationship between the output frequency and detected value of the Inverter is opposite.

PID control will result in diversion if the detected value decreases when the output frequency of the
Inverter increases. If that happens, set n128 for PID control selection to negative characteristics
(e.g., if 1 has been set, change it to 5).

8-2-13 Inverter Vibrates in Energy-saving Control

The energysaving settings are incorrect.

Check the frequency coincides with the power averaging time in n143, the Inverter is not in smooth
probe operation. Set the probe operation voltage limit to 0 in n144 to disable the probe operation
of the Inverter or reduce the set values of n145 (100% probe-control voltage step) and n146 (5%
probe-control voltage step) so that the voltage change range will be narrower.

8-2-14 Motor Rotates after Output of Inverter is Turned OFF

Insufficient DC Control

If the motor continues operating at low speed, without completely stopping, and after a
deceleration stop has been executed, it means that the DC braking is not decelerating enough.
In such cases, adjust the DC control as described below.
Increase the parameter in n089 for DC injection control current.
Increase the parameter in n090 for DC injection control time.

8-2-15 Detects 0 V and Stalls when Motor Starts

Insufficient DC control at startup

Generation of 0 V and stalling can occur if the motor is turning when it is started. This can be
prevented by slowing the rotation of the motor by DC braking before starting the motor.
Increase the parameter in n091 for startup DC injection control time.

8-2-16 Output Frequency Does Not Reach Frequency Reference

The frequency reference is within the jump frequency range.

If the jump function is used, the output frequency stays within the jump frequency range.
Make sure that the jump width settings in n083 through n085 for jump frequencies 1 through 3 and
jump width in n086 are appropriate.

The preset output frequency exceeds the upper-limit frequency.

The upper-limit frequency can be obtained from the following formula.

8-3 Maintenance and Inspection

WARNING
Do not touch the Inverter terminals while the power is being supplied.

WARNING
Maintenance or inspection must be performed only after turning OFF the power supply,
confirming that the CHANGE indicator (or status indicators) is turned OFF, and after waiting
for the time specified on the front cover. Not doing so may result in electrical shock.

WARNING
Maintenance, inspection, or parts replacement must be performed by authorized personnel.
Not doing so may result in electrical shock or injury.

WARNING
Do not attempt to take the Unit apart or repair. Doing either of these may result in electrical
shock or injury.

Caution
Carefully handle the Inverter because it uses semiconductor elements. Careless handling may
result in malfunction.

Caution
Do not change wiring, disconnect connectors or Operator, or replace fans while power is being
supplied. Doing so may result in injury or malfunction.

SDaily inspection

Check the following items with the system in operation.
The motor should not be vibrating or making unusual noises.
There should be no abnormal heat generation.
The output current value shown on the monitor display should not be higher than normal.
The cooling fan on the bottom of the Inverter should be operating normally, if the Inverter
model has the cooling fan.

SPeriodic Inspection

Check the following items during periodic maintenance.
Before beginning inspection, be sure to turn OFF the power supply. Confirm that all the
indicators on the front panel have turned OFF, and then wait until at least 1 minute has elapsed
before beginning the inspection.
Be sure not to touch the terminals right after the power has been turned OFF. Otherwise, an
electric shock nay occur.
The terminal screws of the Inverter should not loose.
There should be no conductive dust or oil mist on the terminal block or inside the Inverter.
The mounting screws of the Inverter should not be loose.
No dirt or dust should be accumulating on the vents of the Inverter.
There should be no abnormalities in the outward appearance of the Inverter.
There should be no unusual noises or vibration and the accumulated operating time should
not exceeded the specifications.

196
SPeriodic Maintenance Parts

The Inverter is configured of many parts, and these parts must operate properly in order to
make full use of the Inverters functions. Among the electronic components, there are some
that require maintenance depending on their usage conditions. In order to keep the Inverter
operating normally over a long period of time, it is necessary to perform periodic inspections
and replace parts according to their service life. (Quoted from JAMAs Recommendations for
Regular Maintenance of General-purpose Inverters.)

??? Is the above JAMA reference necessary? Please advise.

Periodic inspection standards vary with the installation environment and usage conditions of
the Inverter.
The maintenance periods of the Inverter are described below. Keep them as reference.
Maintenance Periods (Reference)
Cooling fan: 2 to3 years
Electrolytic capacitor: 5 years
Fuse: 10 years
The usage conditions are as follows:
Ambient temperature: 40C
Load factor: 80%
Operation: 8 hours per day
Installation: According to instructions in manual

It is recommended that the ambient temperature and power-on time be reduced as much as
possible to extend of the life of the Inverter.

Note For details regarding maintenance, consult your OMRON representative.

SReplacement of Cooling Fan

If the FAN fault is displayed or the cooling fan needs replacement, take the following steps to
replace it.

CHAPTER 11
Using the Inverter for a Motor

Using the Inverter for a Motor Chapter 11
228

Using Inverter for Existing Standard Motor

When a standard motor is operated with the Inverter, a power loss is lightly higher than when
operated with a commercial power supply.
In addition, cooling effects also decline the low-speed range, resulting in an increase in the
motor temperature. Therefore, motor torque should be reduced in the low speed range.
The following figure shows allowable load characteristics of a standard motor.
If 100% torque is continuously required in the low-speed range, use a special motor for use
with Inverters.

zHigh-speed Operation

When using the motor at high-speed (60 Hz or more), problems may arise in dynamic balance
and bearing durability.

zTorque Characteristics

The motor may require more acceleration torque when the motor is operated with the Inverter
than when operated with a commercial power supply. Check the load torque characteristics of
the machine to be used with the motor to set a proper V/f pattern.

zVibration

The 3G3MV Series employs high carrier PWM control to reduce motor vibration. When the
motor is operated with the Inverter, motor vibration is almost the same as when operated with
a commercial power supply.
Motor vibration may, however, become greater in the following cases.

zResonance with the natural frequency of the mechanical system
Take special care when a machine that has been operated at a constant speed is to be operated
in variable speed mode.

zImbalance rotor
Take special care when the motor is operated at a high speed (60 Hz or more).

Torque (%)

Continuous
40% ED (or 20 min)
60% ED (or 40 min)
Frequency (Hz)
229
zNoise

Noise is almost the same as when the motor is operated with a commercial power supply.
Motor noise, however, becomes louder when the motor is operated at a speed higher than the
rated speed (60 Hz).

Using Inverter for Special Motors

zPole-changing Motor

The rated input current of pole-changing motors differs from that of standard motors. Select,
therefore, an appropriate Inverter according to the maximum input current of the motor to be
used.
Before changing the number of poles, always make sure that the motor has stopped.
Otherwise, the overvoltage protective or overcurrent protective mechanism will be actuated,
resulting in an error.

zSubmersible Motor

The rated input current of submersible motors is higher than that of standard motors.
Therefore, always select an Inverter by checking its rated output current.
When the distance between the motor and Inverter is long, use a cable thick enough to connect
the motor and Inverter to prevent motor torque reduction.

zExplosion-proof Motor

When an explosion-proof motor or increased safety-type motor is to be used, it must be subject
to an explosion-proof test in conjunction with the Inverter. This is also applicable when an
existing explosion-proof motor is to be operated with the Inverter.

zGearmotor

The speed range for continuous operation differs according to the lubrication method and
motor manufacturer. In particular, the continuous operation of an oil-lubricated motor in the
low speed range may result in burning. If the motor is to be operated at a speed higher than 60
Hz, consult with the manufacturer.

zSynchronous Motor

A synchronous motor is not suitable for Inverter control.
If a group of synchronous motors is individually turned on and off, synchronism may be lost.

zSingle-phase Motor

Do not use the Inverter for a single-phase motor.
The motor should be replaced with a 3-phase motor.

230
Power Transmission Mechanism (Speed Reducers, Belts, and Chains)

If an oil-lubricated gear box or speed reducer is used in the power transmission mechanism, oil
lubrication will be affected when the motor operates only in the low speed range. The power
transmission mechanism will make noise and experience problems with service life and
durability if the motor is operated at a speed higher than 60 Hz.

Motor Burnout Caused by Insufficient Dielectric Strength of Each Phase of
Motor

Surge occurs among the phases of the motor when the output voltage is switched. If the
dielectric strength of each phase of the motor is insufficient, the motor may burn out.
The dielectric strength of each phase of the motor must be higher than the maximum surge
voltage. Normally, the maximum surge voltage is approximately three times the power
voltage imposed on the Inverter.
Be sure to connect Inverter-dedicated motors if the Inverter is a 400-V-class model.
Standard motors do not have sufficient dielectric strength and may burn out.
